ginger's eye color....

what color would you say gingers eyes are? she turned 1 years old in march. her eyes started out very blue and then lighter blue until now which i would say is a green? she's always had that hazel ring on the outer edge it just hasn't gotten any bigger. do you think they will change anymore?

no flash is my siggy pic.

this one was taken at the beginning of december (you can see the hazel ring a little)

Re: ginger's eye color....

Seems to me you have a green eyed choc lab..it is acceptable per the standards if I remember correctly. We were hoping Dakota's eyes would stay/be green. He had the bluish eyes..then they went to the golden greenish color..more golden than green

Re: ginger's eye color....

Hmmmmmm.... blueish green...... whatever color they are, I just love them ! She is on my Lab screensaver that Shawn made, and I always love to see her blue eyes...... I thought they were very rare actually, as I've never seen a blue eyed chocolate Lab. She is striking...... yellow may NOT be a desired color, but I personally think it makes for a very striking look...... I like the lighter eye shade against the dark coat color......

PS,,,,, can you tell I like yella eyes ??

He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

Re: ginger's eye color....

I have hazel eyes..which often look green..this was what I meant. They are a greenish color..not green as in olive/emerald/etc. I've seen full grown choc labs with a greenish eye, what you call hazel, other people I've seen/heard always say "she/he has "green" eyes. Dakota had blue as a wee pup, then they went bluish green..now they are the golden color with a hint of green at times.

Per the standard "Eye color should be brown in black and yellow Labradors, and brown or hazel in chocolates. Black, or yellow eyes give a harsh expression and are undesirable."

Re: ginger's eye color....

Eyes can take up to 2 years to fully change. Grace's are only now turning into the proper brown!

really! i thought it was 1 year. she's just a pet so i am hoping for them to stay greenish...we will see!
